Michael Carter Michael Carter Joining Tennessee
Wed, Apr 1, 2026, 1:26 PM
The Titans and Carter agreed to terms of a contract Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Analysis: Since the Cardinals claimed Carter off waivers from the Jets in November 2023, Carter made 22 regular-season appearances (six starts) for his new team, totaling 149 carries for 613 yards (4.1 YPC) and two touchdowns and 53 catches (on 67 targets) for 357 yards and one more TD. His role was contingent on health -- not only his own but also that of backfield mates like James Conner (foot) and Trey Benson (knee). Considering Tennessee boasts holdover running backs Tony Pollard and Tyjae Spears and may pounce on a top RB in the 2026 NFL Draft, Carter could find touches difficult to come by without injuries affecting the aforementioned duo. |

Wed, Apr 1, 2026, 11:43 AM
Hooker is in line to sign with the Titans, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Hooker, who last saw regular-season snaps with the Lions in 2024, joins a crowded Titans QB room that currently also includes Cam Ward, Mitchell Trubisky and Will Levis. The 2023 third-rounder adds a dual-threat presence to the group, and his addition could foreshadow the team moving on from Levis down the road. |

The Titans are slated to sign Osborn to a one-year deal, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Osborn didn't see any regular-season action in 2025, but the 28-year-old did combine for 158 catches during a three-year span (2021 through 2023) while he was with the Vikings. In Tennessee, Osborn will provide depth to a wide receiver corps that currently features Calvin Ridley, Wan'Dale Robinson, Elic Ayomanor and Chimere Dike. |

Chestnut has appeared in all of the Titans' 34 contests over the last two years, rushing for 142 yards on 4.3 yards per carry while accumulating 418 kickoff return yards. He's expected to remain a reserve running back and key special-teamer in 2026. |

Bryce Oliver Bryce Oliver Inks deal with Tennessee
Mon, Mar 16, 2026, 5:07 PM
Oliver signed with the Titans on Monday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Analysis: The terms of the contract have yet to be announced, but the Youngstown State product will return to the Titans for a third consecutive season. Oliver appeared in 10 regular-season games for the Titans in 2024 but missed most of the 2025 season due to knee injury that caused him to land on IR in September. He has logged seven catches (on 10 targets) for 103 yards across 13 regular-season games in his NFL career and faces an uphill battle to earn offensive snaps in 2026, especially after Tennessee restructured Calvin Ridley's (fibula) contract and signed Wan'Dale Robinson to a four-year deal. |

Calvin Ridley Calvin Ridley Staying in Tennessee for 2026
Sat, Mar 14, 2026, 12:47 PM
Ridley (fibula) has agreed to restructure his contract with the Titans and will be on the team's roster for the 2026 season, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Ridley was slated to earn a $2 million roster bonus by 4:00 p.m. ET on Saturday, which pushed the Titans and the veteran wide receiver to come to a solution an his contract, per Pelissero. The details of how the contract has been restructured has yet to be announced, but the move ensures that Ridley will remain in Tennessee and pair up with free-agent acquisition Wan'Dale Robinson. Ridley was limited to just seven regular-season games in 2025 due to a fractured left fibula that he suffered in mid-November. Prior to the 2025 campaign, the Alabama product logged at least 1,000 yards in three of four seasons, including in his first year with the Titans in 2024 (64/1,017/4 line on 120 targets across 17 regular-season games). |

Kylen Granson Kylen Granson Lands in Tennessee
Thu, Mar 12, 2026, 6:13 PM
Granson signed a one-year deal with the Titans on Thursday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: The tight end finished the 2025 campaign with career lows in catches (seven), targets (nine) and receiving yards (40). Granson also played more on special teams than defense for the Eagles. The former Colt will now try to find a role with the Titans. |

Bryce Oliver Bryce Oliver Tendered by Titans
Wed, Mar 11, 2026, 11:40 AM
Tennessee tendered Oliver as an exclusive rights free agent on Wednesday.
Analysis: Oliver will return to the Titans on a one-year league minimum contract for 2026. A knee injury he suffered Week 2 cause him to miss most of the 2025 campaign, though he was activated from IR and retook the field Week 18. Across his minimal action last season, Oliver secured his only target for eight yards and operated as a notable special-teams contributor. |

Wan'Dale Robinson Wan'Dale Robinson Joining Titans WR corps
Mon, Mar 9, 2026, 1:10 PM
Robinson (ribs) is slated to sign with the Titans, Dianna Russini of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Robinson, who figures to be past the rib issue he dealt with late last season by the time OTAs roll around, thus is slated to reunite with Tennessee offensive coordinator Brian Daboll, who worked with the wideout in New York. In his new locale, Robinson will serve as a key target for 2025 top overall pick Cam Ward on the heels of a regular season in which he put up a 92-1,014-4 line on 140 targets in 16 contests with the Giants. Steady volume should be on tap for the 2022 second-rounder in 2026, with Robinson's fantasy ceiling linked to Ward's development in his second year as a pro. Per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, Robinson's pact with the Titans is a four-year, $78 million deal, with $38 million guaranteed. |

Daniel Bellinger Daniel Bellinger Following Daboll to Tennessee
Mon, Mar 9, 2026, 12:35 PM
Bellinger is signing with the Titans, Dianna Russini of The Athletic reports Monday.
Analysis: Bellinger will be reunited with Brian Daboll, who is set to work as the offensive coordinator for the Titans after serving as the Giants' head coach from 2022 until his firing in 2025. Daboll's tenure in New York overlapped with Bellinger's four years with the Giants, during which the 2022 fourth-round pick accrued 88 catches for 934 yards and four touchdowns in 62 regular-season appearances. In Tennessee, Bellinger figures to contribute primarily as a blocker behind 2025 fourth-round pick Gunnar Helm (toe), while the status of free agent Chig Okonkwo is still up in the air. |

Mitchell Trubisky Mitchell Trubisky Signed to back up Ward
Mon, Mar 9, 2026, 12:15 PM
The Titans are set to sign Trubisky to two-year deal, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Trubisky, who served as Josh Allen's top backup the last two seasons while with the Bills, thus is slated to handle a similar role in Tennessee behind 2025 No. 1 overall pick Cam Ward. Also currently in the team's QB mix is Will Levis (shoulder), but the addition of Trubisky could foreshadow the 2023 second-rounder being moved. |

Julius Chestnut Julius Chestnut Production dips in 2025
Thu, Feb 12, 2026, 1:31 PM
Chestnut rushed 11 times for 40 yards and failed to catch either of his two targets across 17 games in 2025. Additionally, he tallied 81 kick-return yards.
Analysis: Chestnut saw declines across several statistical categories compared to his 2024 campaign, logging fewer carries (22 to 11) and posting fewer rushing (102 to 40) and receiving (11 to zero) yards while playing 40 fewer offensive snaps. He also returned 10 fewer kicks than he did in 2024 but was more efficient this season, averaging 27 yards per return. Set to enter unrestricted free agency this offseason, Chestnut could draw interest from teams in need of running-back depth and compete for a backup role ahead of the 2026 season. |

Cam Ward Cam Ward 'Doing well' with recovery
Thu, Jan 29, 2026, 2:45 PM
GM Mike Borgonzi said Thursday that Ward currently is rehabbing his right shoulder and is "doing well," Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Analysis: Ward made an early exit from Tennessee's Week 18 loss at Jacksonville due to a right shoulder injury, which was revealed to be an AC joint sprain in the aftermath of the contest, per Adam Schefter of ESPN. Borgonzi also told Terry McCormick of TitanInsider.com that Ward doesn't have a specific timeline for his recovery, so it's unclear if he'll be healthy when OTAs kick off in May. As the first overall pick in the 2025 Draft, Ward started all 17 regular-season games as a rookie, completing 323 of 540 passes (59.8 percent) for 3,169 yards, 15 touchdowns and seven interceptions, rushing 39 times for 159 yards and two more TDs and fumbling 11 times (seven lost). |

Analysis: Kinsey didn't appear in a game until Week 7, as he spent the early portions of the season on Tennessee's practice squad. He played primarily on special teams for the rest of the campaign, logging one reception in Weeks 11 and 17, respectively. Kinsey's 48 yards were the highest mark for a season in his five-year career. |

Wed, Jan 7, 2026, 11:13 PM

Analysis: Proche spent all season with Tennessee, starting with the practice squad before being permanently signed to the active roster in Week 12. He made an immediate impact in that contest, logging three receptions for 42 yards. Proche didn't log more than one catch in any remaining contests of the season, though it was still one of the more productive campaigns of his six-year career. |

Kalel Mullings Kalel Mullings Three carries in 2025
Wed, Jan 7, 2026, 11:08 PM
Mullings recorded three rushes for seven yards across nine games for the Titans during the 2025 season.
Analysis: Mullings was selected in the sixth round of the 2025 draft and managed to stick on the Titans' roster all season. He hurt his ankle in Week 1 and was sidelined until Week 12. Mullings primarily contributed on special teams from there, logging only 12 of his 149 total snaps in his rookie campaign on offense. |

Blake Watson Blake Watson Inks future deal with Tennessee
Mon, Jan 5, 2026, 7:03 PM
The Titans signed Watson (undisclosed) to a reserve/future contract Monday, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Watson signed with the Titans' practice squad in late September after being let go by the Broncos with an injury settlement in late August due to a knee injury. He was placed on Tennessee's practice squad injured list in early October due to an undisclosed issue and was not elevated to the active roster for the 2025 campaign. Watson will stick around in Tennessee and participate in offseason activities with an eye toward making the 53-man roster for the 2026 season. |

Xavier Restrepo Xavier Restrepo Staying in Tennessee
Mon, Jan 5, 2026, 6:56 PM
Restrepo signed a reserve/future contract with the Titans on Monday, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Restrepo was not selected by a team during the 2025 NFL Draft, but he opted to follow University of Miami teammate and No. 1 overall pick Cam Ward to the Titans. Restrepo stuck around on the practice squad after failing to crack the 53-man roster at the end of training camp and was elevated to the active roster for Weeks 12 and 13. He caught three passes (on seven targets) for 41 yards over that two-game span and demonstrated that collegiate chemistry with Ward, but the former was carted off the field during the Titans' Week 13 loss to the Jaguars due to an ankle injury. Restrepo will have a whole offseason to develop his skillset and figures to be a dark horse candidate to make the Titans' 53-man roster for the 2026 season. |

Tyjae Spears Tyjae Spears Only 27 yards in season finale
Mon, Jan 5, 2026, 6:14 PM
Spears rushed the ball three times for 18 yards in Sunday's 41-7 loss to the Jaguars. He added seven receptions (on seven targets) for nine yards.
Analysis: Tony Pollard dominated rushing attempts for Tennessee, tallying 14 compared to Spears' three. Spears did serve as a favorite checkdown option for fill-in QB Brandon Allen, but that resulted in little production. Injuries and a poor offensive environment derailed Spears' third year as a pro, as his 291 rushing yards across 13 regular-season games were the fewest of his career. He'll presumably enter the final year of his rookie contract in a backup role to Pollard in 2026. |
